2 Category 2 - other staff costs (recruitment, training and payroll administration costs) and
3 Category 3 - ancillary costs (ERNIC, pension contributions, statutory redundancy payments), costs of replacement staff covering maternity, paternity, parental or adoptive leave absences.
Category 1 and 2 costs combined are limited to £50,000 per year (pro rata). Within this limit, recruitment costs are restricted to £500 per recruitment exercise and training to £500 per annum. Staff costs continue to be paid for the three months’ winding up period.
